RAI-2.3A.4.2-2 (Unit 2)

Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 2 (IP2) UFSAR Section 14.1.10, "Excessive Heat Removal Due To Feedwater System Malfunctions," explains in the case of excessive feedwater (FW) flow resulting from an accidental full opening of one FW control valve, the resulting transient is similar to, but less severe than the hypothetical steamline break transient described in Section 14.2.5. Therefore, the failure is bounded by the analysis presented in Section 14.2.5. UFSAR Section 14.2.5.6, Containment Peak Pressure for a Postulated Steam Line Break, specifically indicates that for IP2 the applicant takes credit for the main FW stop valves, BFD-5's, closing within 120 seconds, in the event of the failure of the main FW control valve. In response to a telephone conference call the staff had with the applicant on March 7, 2008 (ADAMS Accession number ML080840568), the applicant revised its response to RAI 2.3A.4.2-1. In its amended response, dated March 24, 2008, the applicant reiterated that the FW valves credited for FW isolation are safety-related. This response did not specifically include FW isolation valves, BFD-5's, by name, and they are not included within the boundary flags for system scope, nor highlighted on license renewal drawings for having an intended function in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1).

The staff requests the applicant to: a) justify the exclusion of these isolation valves, BFD-5's, from the scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1), and b) verify whether a similar issue to Unit 3 exists for Unit 2 as stated in the following RAI (RAI 2.3B.4.2-2) for Unit 3, which credits closure of BFD-5's and BFD-90's valves in the event of a main steam line break on a high steam flow safety injection logic, which would require not only the inclusion of BFD-5's but also BFD-90's within scope per 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1).

Response for RAI-2.3A.4.2-2 (Unit 2) a) The Entergy response dated March 24, 2008 indicated that feedwater valves within boundary flags on drawing LRA-9321-2019-0 are safety-related. However, the BFD-5's (BFD-5, BFD-5-1, BFD-5-2, and BFD-5-3) are nonsafety-related valves as indicated by their location inside the non-quality group boundary symbols on drawing LRA-9321-2019-0 and as indicated in the site component database. As described in UFSAR Section 14.2.5.6, these valves provide backup feedwater isolation capability.

NUREG-0138, "Staff Discussion of Fifteen Technical Issues Listed in Attachment to November 3, 1976 Memorandum from Director, NRR to NRR Staff," Issue 1, includes an analysis of the treatment of non-safety grade equipment in evaluations of postulated steam line break accidents. Page 1-11 states the following.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 2 of 52 Thus, the staff believes that it is acceptable to rely on these non-safety grade components in the steam and feedwater systems because their design and performance are compatible with the accident conditions for which they are called upon to function. It is the staff position that utilization of these components as a backup to a single failure in safety grade components adequately protects the health and safety of the public.

The BFD-5's are within the scope of license renewal and subject to aging management review and evaluated in Table 3.3.2-19-12-1P2.

b) The IP2 UFSAR clearly states in Section 14.2.5.6 that no credit is taken for the feedwater bypass stop valves (BFD-90's) in the postulated steam line break analysis. However, the BFD-90s are within the scope of license renewal and subject to aging management review and are evaluated in Table 3.3.2-19-12-1P2.

RAI 2.3B.4.2-2 (Unit 3)

Similar to the issue stated in the above RAI for Unit 2 (RAI-2.3A.4.2-2), a comparable issue applies for FW isolation valves for Unit 3. However, the Unit 3 analysis differs slightly from Unit 2 to include the FW isolation valves (BFD-90's) associated with the FW regulating bypass valves. UFSAR Section 14.2.5, "Rupture of a Steam Pipe," states that in the event of a main steam line break incident, the motor-operated valves (MOVs) associated with each of the FW regulating valves (FRVs) will also close. The mechanical stroke time of 120 seconds to close these associated MOVs has been analyzed and is acceptable. In addition, license renewal drawing 9321-20193 shows a "HIGH STEAM FLOW SI LOGIC" signal goes to these motor operated isolation valves. UFSAR Section 14.2.5.1 states that redundant isolation of the main FW lines is necessary, because sustained high FW flow would cause additional cooldown.

Therefore, in addition to the normal control action which will close the main FW valves, any boundary flags for system scope, nor highlighted on LRA drawings for having an intended function in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1). In its amended response, dated March 24, 2008, the applicant did not specifically include these FW isolation valves, BFD-5's and BFD-90's, by name.

The staff requests the applicant to justify the exclusion of these isolation valves, BFD-5's and BFD-90's, from scope of license renewal in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) safety injection signal will rapidly close all FW control valves (including the motor-operated block valves and low-flow bypass valves), trip the main FW pumps, and close the FW pump discharge valves. The motor-operated block valves shown on the license renewal drawings are BFD-5's and BFD-90's for the main FRVs, and the low flow bypass regulating valves, respectively. The FW isolation valves, BFD-5's and BFD-90's, are not shown to be included within the system.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 3 of 52 Response for RAI-2.3B.4.2-2 (Unit 3)

The BFD-5's (BFD-5-1, BFD-5-2, BFD-5-3, and BFD-5-4) and BFD-90's (BFD-90-1, BFD-90-2, BFD-90-3, and BFD-90-4) are nonsafety-related valves as indicated by their location inside the Class I boundary on drawing LRA-9321-20193 and as indicated in the site component database. As described in UFSAR Section 14.2.5.1, Item 3, the motor operated block valves (BFD-5's) and low flow bypass valves (BFD-90's) provide backup isolation capability.

The staff previously evaluated BFD-5's (MFIIV) and BFD-90's (MFBIIV) in a letter from George F Wunder (NRC) to Michael Kansler (Entergy), "Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 3 - Issuance of Amendment RE: Main Feedwater Isolation Valve Modifications (TAC NO. MB01 79), dated April 18, 2001 (ML010640142).

Excerpts from Section 3.0, Evaluation, are shown below.

"Though the MFIIVs, MFBIIVs, and valve operators will remain non-safety grade, the automatic closure of these isolation valves on a SI signal will be credited in the analysis for mitigation of an MSLB inside containment. The staff generally requires that only safety grade structure, systems, or components (SSC) can be credited in the design basis safety analysis. However, as specified in the Standard Review Plan (SRP), taking credit for non-safety related equipment in the safety analyses of MSLB accidents is acceptable.

This position is also discussed in NUREG-0138 in addressing Issue No. 1, "Treatment of Non-Safety Grade Equipment in Evaluation of Postulated Steam Line Break Accidents," which states the following.

... the staff believes that it is acceptable to rely on these non-safety grade components in the steam and feedwater systems because their design and performance are compatible with the accident conditions for which they are called upon to function. It is the staff position that utilization of these components as a backup to a single failure in safety grade components adequately protects the health and safety of the public."

The BFD-5s and BFD-90s are in the scope of license renewal and subject to aging management review. These components are evaluated in Table 3.3.2-19-34-1P3.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 4 of 52 RAI-2.3A.4.5-2 (Unit 2)

In LRA Section 2.3.4.5 the applicant describes systems not described elsewhere in the application credited for mitigating the consequences of a Unit 2 fire event in the auxiliary feedwater (AFW) room. Each system listed has the following intended function: to support safe shutdown in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feed pump room (10 CFR 50.48) function in accordance 10 CFR 54.4(a)(3). The applicant states "no LRA drawings are provided based on the intended function of supporting safe shutdown in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feed pump room." However, the applicant states in LRA Section 2.2 that "[c]omponents subject to aging management review are highlighted on license renewal drawings, with the exception of components in scope for 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2)."

Since the structures and components that support mitigating the consequences of a fire event are in scope in accordance with 10 CFR 54.4(a)(3) and subject to an AMR in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21 (a)(1), then the components should have been highlighted on license renewal drawings. However, the applicant did not highlight the components or flowpaths needed to support this event. In addition, the applicant did not, in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21 (a)(1), identify and list the structures and components that are subject to an AMR. Therefore, based upon the information provided in the LRA, the staff was not able to verify which components are included in scope to perform the stated function and are subject to an AMR.

For each system identified in LRA Section 2.3.4.5, the staff requests the applicant to a) identify the system support function for the AFW pump room fire event, b) clearly identify the portions of the systems' flow paths that support these functions that are subject to an AMR, and c) identify the portions of these flow paths that are not already in scope for 10 CFR 54.4(a)(1) or (a)(2).

Response for RAI-2.3A.4.5-2 (Unit 2)

Background

As discussed in section 2.3.4.5 of the LRA, a combination of secondary systems and components are credited for one hour for supplying make up water through the main feedwater isolation valves to the steam generators during the AFW (Auxiliary Feedwater) pump room fire event (Fire Zone 23/Fire Area C). This is necessary because under the current licensing basis, plant personnel are assumed unable to re-enter the AFW pump room for one hour following onset of the fire.

A conservative assessment of systems that support this event was performed for license renewal. For example, the wash water system was included in scope even though the travelling screens may not require cleaning during the one hour duration of the event, and several sources of instrument air were also included though only one would be needed.

Feedwater may be supplied by the main feedwater pumps in combination with the condensate pumps or by the condensate pumps alone after steam pressure is decreased. License renewal scoping conservatively identified systems that are required for main feedwater pump operation or condensate pump operation since this provides the maximum operator flexibility in response to the event. As a result, many auxiliary systems were included such as the main condenser to support the main feedwater pump

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 5 of 52 turbine exhaust, circulating water to support condenser cooling, and main feedwater pump supporting sub-systems such as lube oil and cooling water.

2. The description originally provided for the LRA Section 2.3.4.5, Auxiliary Steam, second paragraph, (page 2.3-340) incorrectly describes the system function during the AFW pump room fire event. The second paragraph is replaced with:

"For the AFW pump room fire event, auxiliary steam supports the gland seal steam supply."

RAI 3.4.2-1 In LRA Section 3.4.2, the applicant summarizes its AMR results for the IP2 auxiliary feedwater pump room fire event. In the LRA, the applicant states that:

The components in the systems required to supply feedwater to the steam generators during the short duration of the fire event are in service at the time the event occurs or their availability is checked daily. Therefore, integrity of the systems and components required to perform post-fire intended functions for at least one hour is continuously confirmed by normal plant operation. During the event these systems and components must continue to perform their intended functions to supply feedwater to the steam generators for a minimum of one hour.

Significant degradation that could threaten the performance of the intended functions will be apparent in the period immediately preceding the event and corrective action will be required to sustain continued operation. For the minimal one hour period that these systems would be required to provide make up to the steam generators, further aging degradation that would not have been apparent prior to the event is negligible.

Therefore, no aging effects are identified, and no Summary of Aging Management Review table is provided.

Section 54.21 (a)(1) of 10 CFR requires that for those systems, structures, and components within the scope of license renewal, as delineated in § 54.4, applicants must identify and list those structures and components subject to an aging management review. Additionally, Section 54.21 (a)(3), requires that for each structure and component identified in paragraph 54.21 (a)(1), applicants must demonstrate that the effects of aging will be adequately managed so that the intended function(s) will be maintained consistent with the CLB for the period of extended operation. Based on the information contained in the LRA, Entergy has not demonstrated that the effects of aging for passive, long-lived components within the systems credited for providing flow to the steam generators during the fire event will be adequately managed.

For those systems, or portions thereof, that are identified in response to RAI 2.3.4.5-2, part c, the staff requests that the applicant provide a list of passive, long-lived component types, material, environment, and aging effect combinations, and the programs that will be used to manage the aging effects.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 12 of 52 Response for RAI 3.4.2-1 As indicated in LRA section 2.3.4.5, normal plant operation demonstrates the ability of secondary systems to supply feedwater to the steam generators. This includes the systems that function to supply feedwater to the steam generators in the unlikely event of a fire in the AFW pump room. The function of supporting safe shutdown in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feed pump room is confirmed on an ongoing basis since the required SSCs are performing their intended functions under design basis conditions during normal operation. Unlike the case for most safety-related equipment, the conditions under which these SSCs must perform their intended functions are the same conditions under which they operate during the course of normal plant operations.

Performance of intended functions during normal plant operation demonstrates that the systems and components can perform those functions for one hour in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feedwater pump room.

The response to RAI 2.3A.4.5-2 describes the functions and flow paths of the systems credited for the AFW pump room fire event.

The following tables provide clarifying details regarding the passive, long-lived component types, materials, environments, aging effects and programs for SSCs that support the AFW pump room fire event that were not already included in scope and STAMR for 10CFR54.4(a)(1) or (a)(2).

Materials and environments have been identified, however there are no aging effects requiring management. The function of supporting safe shutdown in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feed pump room is confirmed since these SSCs, which are required to support this function, perform their intended functions during normal operation.

Conditions under which these SSCs must perform their intended functions are the same conditions under which they operate during the course of normal plant operations. Performance of intended functions during normal plant operation demonstrates that the systems and components can perform those functions for one hour in the event of a fire in the auxiliary feedwater pump room.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 34 of 52 RAI 3.0.3.3.3-1 In the LRA, the applicant stated that the existing program will be enhanced to include the minimum wall thickness for the new heat exchangers added to the scope of the program, and to specify that if visual examination is performed, the acceptance criterion is "no unacceptable signs of degradation." These acceptance criteria for visual examination are not clear and appear to be subjective. Therefore, the staff requests that Entergy clarify, in quantitative terms, what acceptance criteria are used for the visual examination of the heat exchanger tubes.

Response for RAI 3.0.3.3.3-1 The Heat Exchanger Monitoring Program performs visual inspections on heat exchangers that cannot be inspected by quantitative non-destructive examination due to design limitations.

Visual inspections are performed by engineers qualified by virtue of training and experience to evaluate heat exchanges conditions. Visual inspection of external portions of heat exchanger tubes focuses on detecting the extent of tube erosion, vibration wear, corrosion, pitting, fouling, and scaling.

The term "no unacceptable signs of degradation" means no indications of these aging mechanisms to the extent that the intended function of the heat exchanger could be compromised. The judgment of the qualified heat exchanger engineer is applied to make this determination based on the design requirements of the heat exchanger and considering the extent of surface roughness caused by corrosion, erosion, pitting or wear and the thickness and extent of any scale or other foreign material observed on the tubes. Any unacceptable signs of degradation will be evaluated through the corrective action process.

RAI 3.0.3.3.4-1 LRA Table B-2 identifies AMP B.1.18, Inservice Inspection Program, as a plant-specific condition monitoring program for the applications. The staff notes that Entergy has committed to enhance the "detection of aging effects" program element of the Inservice Inspection Program to revise the AMP to provide for periodic visual inspections of lubrite sliding supports used in the steam generator supports and reactor coolant pump (RCP) supports in order to confirm the absence of aging effects. Please specify (1) which aging effects and parameters will be monitored for by the visual examinations, (2) the types of visual examinations (e.g., VT-1, EVT-1, VT-2, or VT-3), (3) inspection frequency and sample size for the visual examination method that will be used to monitor for aging, (4) the acceptance criteria that will be used to evaluate the examination results, and (5) the corrective action or actions that will be implemented if the inspection results do not conform to the acceptance standard(s) for these components.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 35 of 52 Response for RAI 3.0.3.3.4-1 The inservice inspection (ISI) program will employ visual inspections to confirm the absence of aging effects for steam generator (SG) and reactor coolant pump (RCP) lubrite sliding supports through the period of extended operation (PEO).

As described in LRA Section B.1.18, the ISI program is an existing program that encompasses requirements of ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWF for ASME Class 1, 2, 3, and MC supports. The ISI program will be enhanced prior to the PEO to include explicit provisions for periodic inspections of the lubrite sliding supports. No aging effects requiring management have been identified for lubrite, but monitoring the surface condition of accessible surfaces will confirm the absence of age-related degradation. The inspections will be VT-3 visual examinations of SG and RCP lubrite sliding supports to determine their condition. The inspections will examine accessible surfaces of the lubrite and adjacent surfaces for wear or abnormal condition (surface roughness) that could potentially lead to lock-up or loss of function of the support. The lubrite will be examined in conjunction with Code required examinations of the support as a whole. The inspection frequency and sample size will be in accordance with the requirements of ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWF.

The supports must meet the acceptance standards described in IWF-3410(a), which includes no scoring or roughness on sliding surfaces. Any of the conditions described in IWF-3410(a) shall be corrected or evaluated for acceptance in accordance with IWF-3122.2 and IWF-3122.3, respectively. Corrective actions for this program will be administered under the site QA program which meets requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B.

RAI 3.0.3.3.4-2 The staff notes that the "corrective actions" program element for AMP B.1.18, Inservice Inspection Program, credits only the corrective actions in the ASME Code Section Xl, Articles IWA-4000 and IWA-7000 as the corrective action criteria for the program. The ASME Code Section XI editions of record for IP units are the 2001 Edition of the ASME Code Section XI inclusive of the 2003 Addenda for IP2 and the 1989 Edition of the ASME Code Section Xl, with no addenda for IP3. The staff noted that Entergy did not credit component-specific corrective action criteria in ASME Section XI, Article IWB-4000/7000 for Class 1 components, Article IWC- 4000/7000 for Class 2 components, Article IWD-4000/7000 Class 3 components, or Article IWF 4000/7000 for ASME Code Class component supports as being within the scope of the "corrective action" program element for this AMP. Clarify whether the content of the "corrective actions" program element was intended to mean that Entergy will implement the corrective action provisions in the ASME Code Section Xl, Subsections IWA, IWB, IWC, IWD, and IWF that are applicable to the component Code Class in the applicable ASME Code Section Xl edition of record.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 36 of 52 Response for RAI 3.0.3.3.4-2 The content of the "corrective actions" program element means that Entergy will implement the corrective action provisions in the ASME Code Section XI, Subsections IWA, IWB, IWC, IWD, and IWF that are applicable to the component Code Class in the applicable ASME Code Section XI edition of record.

RAI 3.0.3.3.7-1 LRA Table B-2 identifies AMP B.1.29, Periodic Surveillance and Preventative Maintenance Program, as an existing, plant-specific condition monitoring program for the LRA. NUREG-1800, Revision 1, "Standard Review Plan for Review of License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants" (SRP-LR), Appendix A, Section A.1.2.2 states that aging management programs for license renewal applications (LRAs) are to be defined in terms of the 10 program elements that are provided in Table A-1 of the same appendix.

The staff notes that the applicant plans to enhance the "scope of program," "parameters monitored," "detection of aging effects," and "acceptance criteria" program elements for this AMP to develop the program activities in the future (Commitment 21). Technical Specification (TS) 5.5.2 for IP2 and TS 5.5.2 for IP3 provide TS preventative maintenance and surveillance requirements.

1. The staff requests that Entergy supplement the "scope of program" program element to clearly identify the systems and components that are within the scope of this AMP.
2. The "detection of aging effects" program element did not clearly establish which type of non-visual NDE method (volumetric examination by UT, RT, or ET or surface examination by MT or PT) or visual method (i.e., EVT-1, VT-1, VT-2, or VT-3) would be credited for each of the aging effects that the program monitors for. In addition, it is not clear whether flexing of the elastomeric components in the circulating water system and emergency diesel generator exhaust system would be coupled to the visual examinations of the components, as it was proposed for other elastomeric components within the scope of the AMP. The staff requests a more definitive discussion on the specific inspection methods (UT, RT, ET, EVT-1, VT-1, VT-2, or VT-3) to detect the parameters that are associated with the aging effects the AMP monitors for. The staff also requests that Entergy clarify whether physical manipulation (i.e., flexing) of the elastomeric components in the circulating water system and emergency diesel generator exhaust system are credited under the AMP.
3. The "monitoring and trending" program element for the AMP did not provide any discussion on how the data from the inspections performed under the "detection of aging effects" program element would be collected, quantified, or evaluated against applicable acceptance criteria, and used to make predictions related to degradation growth or to schedule re-inspections of the components. The staff requests a more definitive discussion on how the inspection results or physical manipulation (flexing) results (for elastomers) will be collected and quantified, or evaluated against applicable acceptance criteria, and used to make predictions related to degradation growth or to schedule reinspections or repairs of the components.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 37 of 52

4. The "acceptance criteria" program element for the AMP only states that "acceptance criteria are defined in specific inspection and testing procedures and that these acceptance criteria include appropriate temperature, no significant wear, corrosion, cracking, change in material properties (for elastomers), and significant fouling based on applicable intended functions established by plant design basis. The program element discuss does not clearly identify the quantitative or qualitative criteria that will be used to assess the inspection results or reference the regulatory-based documents or standards that contain these criteria. The staff requests a clarification on the specific quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria that will be used to evaluate the results of the specific inspection methods or physical manipulation methods (for elastomers) that are implemented under this AMP.
5. With respect to operating experience and the discussion on the NaOH tanks and recirculation pumps, clarify whether the term "no deficiencies" means that no evidence of loss of material (by corrosion, erosion, wear, or other mechanisms) was detected in the components or whether the meaning is that some amount of age-related degradation had been detected in the components and the amount of cracking or loss of material (wall loss) was found to be acceptable when compared to appropriate acceptance standards.

With respect to the discussion on the IP2 and IP3 emergency diesel generators, the security diesel generator, and the IP3 Appendix R fire protection diesel generator, clarify whether the statements "no unacceptable loss of material" and "no significant corrosion or wear" mean that no loss of material (by corrosion, erosion, wear, or other mechanisms) was detected in the components or that some loss of material was detected in the components and the amount of loss of material was found to be acceptable when compared to appropriate acceptance standards. If some degradation was detected in these components and the amount of degradation was in conformance with the applicable acceptance criteria, clarify whether the scope of the AMP included appropriate reinspections of the components in order to account for potential degradation of the components.

Response for RAI 3.0.3.3.7-1

1. Systems and components within the scope of Periodic Surveillance and Preventive Maintenance Program are identified in the program description of LRA Section B.1.29.
2. The program uses established NDE techniques, including visual, volumetric (RT or UT),

and surface techniques performed by qualified personnel. Visual inspection is used only when the potential aging effect can be detected by direct surface examination. The inspection and test techniques have a demonstrated history of effectiveness in detecting the aging effect of concern. For new inspection activities implemented prior to the period of extended operation, selection of the specific type of examination technique will be based on the configuration, materials, aging effects and accessibility of the components.

The following table provides appropriate examination techniques for specific aging effects and mechanisms.

Manual flexing of the elastomeric components in the circulating water system and emergency diesel generator exhaust system are new activities within this program. The pertinent text of LRA Section B.1.29 Periodic Surveillance and Preventative Maintenance Program is revised as follows to explicitly specify manually flexing elastomeric components.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 39 of 52 (underline - added, strikethrough - deleted)

Emergency diesel Visually inspect both inside and outside surfaces of generators elastomer duct flexible connections on the intake portion of EDG duct. Manually flex these connections.

Nonsafety-related systems Use visual or other NDE techniques to inspect inside and affecting IP2 safety-related outside surfaces of a representative sample of circulating systems water system elastomer flexible piping connections, and manually flex these connections, to manage loss of material and cracking and change in material properties.

Nonsafety-related systems Use visual or other NDE techniques to inspect inside and affecting IP3 safety-related outside surfaces of a representative sample of circulating systems water system elastomer flexible piping connections, and manually flex these connections, to manage loss of material and cracking and change in material properties.

3. The initial periodicity of inspections and manual flexing are based on vendor recommendations, industry guidance, input from other Entergy nuclear sites, and IPEC-specific operating experience. Results of these inspections and manual flexing are collected as part of the work control process. Any indications or relevant conditions of degradation are reported and submitted for evaluation under the corrective action program. This evaluation is performed against criteria which ensure that the structure or component intended function(s) are maintained under all current licensing basis design conditions during the period of extended operation.

Results of these inspections and manual flexing are trended by an assigned "responsible engineer". If a potential need for a change in scope or frequency of inspections is indicated based on identified patterns of degradation, a preventive maintenance change request is processed.

4. Any indications or relevant conditions of degradation are reported and submitted for further evaluation as part of the corrective action program. This evaluation is performed against criteria which ensure that the structure or component intended function(s) are maintained under all current licensing basis design conditions during the period of extended operation.

These criteria include no unacceptable wear, corrosion, cracking, change in material properties (for elastomers), or significant fouling. Specific quantitative or qualitative criteria for acceptability are contained in manufacturer information or vendor manuals for some individual components. The engineering review process is used in situations where appropriate manufacturer data is unavailable.

5. The inspections of the IP3 sodium hydroxide (NaOH) storage tank, IP2 and IP3 recirculation pumps, IP2 and IP3 emergency diesel generators, the security generator, and the IP3 Appendix R fire protection diesel generator listed in LRA Section B.1.29 found no evidence of loss of material.

RAI 3.1.2.2.7.2-1 Part A - The staff notes that the Inservice Inspection Program (as given in LRA Section B.1.18) is credited, in part, as an acceptable plant-specific condition monitoring program for the management of cracking in ASME Code Class 1 components, including ASME Code Class 1 cast austenitic stainless steel (CASS) components. However, the staff also notes that the inspections credited under this program might be either ultrasonic test (UT) examinations or enhanced VT-1 visual examinations. If UT examinations are credited for aging management of reduction of fracture toughness in the CASS components, clarify how the UT technique selected for the examination will be capable of differentiating between UT signals that derive from flaws or cracks in the CASS materials from those that derived from UT background noise signals as a result of the complexity of the CASS microstructure or component geometry.

Part B - The staff determined that Entergy credits its Thermal Aging Embrittlement of Cast Austenitic Stainless Steel (CASS) Program in part to manage cracking in the non-ASME Code Class CASS pressurizer spray head. The staff also notes that the applicant's program includes a flaw evaluation methodology for CASS components that are susceptible to thermal aging embrittlement, and that alternatively, this AMP may credit UT or enhanced VT-1 visual examinations as an indirect basis for managing loss/reduction of fracture toughness as a result of thermal aging. However, the staff notes that the applicant's program is not specifically credited for the management of cracking in CASS components. The staff requests that Entergy justify its basis for crediting AMP B.1.37, Thermal Aging Embrittlement of Cast Austenitic Stainless Steel (CASS) Program, to manage and detect cracking in the CASS pressurizer spray heads at IP2 and IP3, particularly when GALL AMP XI.M12 only credits this type of program for management of reduction of fracture toughness in CASS components and when the program may not actually be performing inspections of these components (i.e., the program has the option only to do the flaw tolerance evaluation without implementation of either a UT or EVT-1 examination).

Response for RAI 3.1.2.2.7.2-1 Part A Current volumetric examination methods, including ultrasonic (UT), are not adequate for reliable detection and evaluation of cracking in CASS components. Therefore, UT examinations are not credited for use in aging management of reduction of fracture toughness in CASS components at IPEC.

Part B In IPEC LRA Tables 3.1.2-3-1P2 and 3.1.2-3-1P3, the pressurizer spray heads were compared to the CASS piping, piping components, and piping elements of NUREG-1801 Vol. 2 Rev. 1 line item IV.C2-3. The Water Chemistry Control - Primary and Secondary Program, which is consistent with NUREG-1801, is credited for aging management. The One-Time Inspection

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 41 of 52 Program will be used to verify the effectiveness of the Water Chemistry Control - Primary and Secondary Program for management of cracking due to stress corrosion as stated in LRA section B.1.27. Listing the Thermal Aging Embrittlement of CASS Program on the line item for cracking may be unnecessary, but was included to demonstrate consistency with NUREG-1801 Item IV.C-3, which recommends a plant-specific program to address thermal aging embrittlement.

Water chemistry and the One-Time Inspection Program alone are recommended in NUREG-1801 Item IV.C2-17 to address cracking in stainless steel pressurizer spray heads. Inclusion of the Thermal Aging Embrittlement of CASS Program to address reduction of fracture toughness is appropriate. The Thermal Aging Embrittlement of CASS Program is closely related to cracking in that it manages reduction of fracture toughness through examinations that detect and size cracks or by flaw tolerance evaluation to demonstrate the material has adequate toughness to resist crack propagation. Under Parameters Monitored/Inspected for XI.M12, NUREG-1801 states that "...loss of fracture toughness is of consequence only if cracks exist)."

For the non-Class 1, non-pressure boundary spray head, the credited aging management programs provide reasonable assurance that the effects of aging will be adequately managed to ensure the spray head remains capable of performing its intended function.

RAI 3.1.2-1 Nickel Alloy AMRs Part A - Clarify whether the following components at IP2 or IP3 are fabricated from Alloy 600 base metal materials or welded with Alloy 182 or Alloy 82 filler metal materials: (1) control rod drive (CRD) housing-CRD nozzle welds, (2) upper reactor vessel closure head (RVCH) head vent nozzle-to-RVCH welds, and (3) CRD housing penetration core exit thermocouple nozzle assembly (CETNATM) components.

Part B - The staff notes that in the applicant's response to Audit Question 208, dated December 18, 2007, the applicant stated that the LRA Tables 3.1.2-1-1P2 through 3.1.2-4-1P2 and LRA Tables 3.1.2-1-1P3 through 3.1.2-4-1P3 include numerous AMR items for nickel-alloy components. The applicant stated that these AMR items are compared to GALL Report items IV.A2-18 and IV.A2-19, which correspond to LRA table entries 3.1.1-31 and 3.1.1-65. The applicant stated that the AMR in LRA AMR 3.1.1-69 is only for management of cracking in the RV inlet and outlet nozzle safe-ends and the RV bottom head drain safe-ends. With respect to the AMRs on cracking of nickel alloy bottom mounted instrumentation (BMI) nozzle components, the staff notes that the response to Question 208 stated that the RV bottom head safe-ends at IP2 and IP3 are those for the RV bottom head drains. Yet the staff notes that LRA Tables 3.1.2-1-1P2 and 3.1.2-1-1P3 do not include any AMR entries for RV bottom head drains. Since your response to Audit Question 208 implies that the RV includes passive, long-lived bottom head drains, provide your basis on whether LRA Tables 3.1.2-1-1P2 and 3.1.2-1-1P3 need to be amended to include new AMRs for RV bottom head drains and their associated drain-to-bottom head welds, and if so clarify whether the bottom head drains are fabricated from Alloy 600 base metal materials or are weld to the bottom RV heads using Alloy 82 or 182 nickel alloy filler metal materials.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 42 of 52 Part C - AMRs of LRA Tables 3.1.2-4-1P2 and 3.1.2-4-1P3, which pertain to the management of cracking in the steam generator (SG) primary nozzle closure rings, credit only the Water Chemistry Control Program to manage cracking of the components. GALL Report Table IV.D1, line item D1-1 for these components recommends, in part, that the Inservice Inspection Program be credited for aging management of this effect in addition to Water Chemistry Control Program - Primary and Secondary. Given the information requested in Part A of this RAI, provide a basis for why the AMRs on cracking of the nickel alloy SG primary nozzle closure rings were aligned to GALL AMR Table VI.D1, line item D1-6, and why the Inservice Inspection Program is not also credited.

Response for RAI 3.1.2-1 Part A- (1) control rod drive (CRD) housing-CRD nozzle welds The reactor vessel closure head CRDM housing tubes (nozzles) for IP2 and IP3 are fabricated from nickel-based alloy. The nozzles penetrate the closure head. These nozzles are attached to the head with partial penetration nickel alloy welds. A stainless steel housing adapter flange is welded to the top of each nozzle. These housing adapter flanges are machined forgings onto which the CRDMs, instrumentation port female flanges, capped latch housings, and head adapter plugs/caps are threaded and seal-welded. The following figure provides details of the penetration.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 43 of 52 Nickel alloy weld

The steel vent nozzle is welded to the steel closure head and the entire assembly is clad with stainless steel.

There is no nickel alloy in the nozzle to head joint. A nickel alloy safe end is welded to the vent nozzle with a nickel alloy weld. The following figure provides details of the penetration.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 45 of 52 (3) CRD housing penetration core exit thermocouple nozzle assembly components.

The CETNA utilize the CRD nozzle penetrations as shown in part A. A CET head port adaptor is connected to the penetration housing adapter flange, and then connected to the CETNA assembly via a conoseal joint. All CETNA assemblies are sealed to the CET columns with Grafoil seals using a compression collar and hold down nut with no welds. As shown in the LRA tables, the CETNA are constructed of stainless steel.

Part B The IP2 and IP3 reactor vessels do not have bottom head drains. The bottom head penetrations provide access into the reactor vessel core for the bottom-mounted instrumentation (BMI). Each bottom head penetration consists of a tubular member made of nickel based alloy. Bottom head penetration safe ends are short tube lengths of stainless steel on the external extension of the penetration tubes that facilitate field welding of the austenitic stainless steel BMI instrumentation tubing. The response to Audit Queston 208 should say "bottom head penetration safe ends" rather than "bottom head drain safe ends Part C The steam generator primary nozzle closure rings are fabricated of nickel alloy. The closure rings are attached to the nozzles to support nozzle dams installed during outages. The closure rings are not relied on to maintain primary pressure boundary integrity and are therefore not subject to inservice inspection requirements.

GALL Report Table IV.D1, line item D1-1 applies to stainless steel components and is therefore not appropriate for comparison. Of the GALL Report Table IV.D1 line items that apply to cracking of nickel alloy, all but two (D1-4 and D1-6) are associated with steam generator tube integrity. Line item D1-4 applies to primary pressure boundary components.

Line item D1-6 applies to the steam generator primary side divider plate, which is not part of the primary pressure boundary. Although it is a different component as denoted by Note C in the LRA table line item, alignment of the closure rings to line item D1-6 provides the best comparison to the GALL aging management review results. Line item D1-6 lists only the Water Chemistry Program for primary water. Inservice inspection is not specified as a program since the component is not part of the primary pressure boundary.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 46 of 52 INDIAN POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NOS. 2 AND 3 LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION SER Open Items 01 2.3A.3.11-1: (SER Section 2.3A.3.11 - IP2 Fire Protection - Water)

In LRA Section 2.3.3.11, the applicant lists the component types that require aging management review. However, some components were not included in the list that are either referenced in 'the applicant's current licensing basis documents or are shown on the license renewal drawings. Therefore, in RAI 2.3A.3.11-2, the staff asked the applicant to determine whether the components listed in the RAI should be included as component types subject to an AMR, and if not, to justify the exclusion. By letter dated November 16, 2007, the applicant stated that yard hose houses and chamber housings are not subject to an aging management review (AMR) because failure of these components will not result in a failure of the fire suppression function of the associated fire hydrant and the sprinkler system, respectively. The yard hose houses and chamber housings are passive, long-lived components that were identified as within the scope of license renewal.

Therefore, the staff considers that these components are subject to an AMR in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21 (a)(1).

The applicant should justify why the yard hose houses and chamber housings are not subject to an AMR.

Response for 01 2.3A.3.11-1:

Yard hose houses for IP-2 are not a building, they are a metal cabinet storage location containing fire hoses and supporting tools (spanner, gated wyes and nozzles). The hose contained therein is subject to periodic inspection, testing and replacement in accordance with NFPA standards. Yard hose houses provide no function that supports 10 CFR 50.48 requirements: therefore, they are not in the scope of license renewal.

Chamber housings are small surge suppression volumes that function to minimize false actuation alarms due to system pressure surges. The chambers receive water from a small bypass line upon actuation of a deluge fire suppression system. When the chamber fills, water flow continues through the chamber to a drain line. Due to the limited amount of water flowing to the chamber housings, neither normal operation nor failure of the chamber housing would prevent satisfactory operation of the fire suppression system. In addition, the chamber housings shown on IP2 drawings are associated with deluge valves that do not perform a function that is credited for compliance with 10 CFR 50.48. The fire suppression systems with chamber housings serve maintenance areas and a file room in the technical support center.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 47 of 52 01 3.0.3.2.7-1: (SER Section 3.0.3.2.7 - Fire Protection Program)

During an audit, the staff reviewed program basis documents (for IP3) associated with the fire protection AMP. One of the basis documents states that 15 percent of the fire seals located in fire barriers are demonstrated to be operable by visual inspection on a frequency of 24 months. However, for those penetration seals that are inaccessible, the frequency of inspection is given as "not required." By letter dated April 29, 2008, the staff requested that the applicant justify the lack of visual inspections of inaccessible penetration seals. In its response, dated May 28, 2008, the applicant stated that penetration seals are inspected at least once every seven operating cycles. However, IP3 site surveillance procedure provides provisions for cases where a penetration seal may become inaccessible for periodic inspection as result of plant configuration changes (i.e., installation of new plant equipment, walls, barriers, or other obstacles). In such cases, the IP3 site procedure includes guidance for the cessation of periodic surveillance of such penetration seals, subject to preparation of a formal fire protection engineering evaluation justifying the discontinuance of periodic visual surveillance.

As stated in the IP3 basis document, the visual inspection of inaccessible penetration seals is "not required" if justified by a supporting fire protection engineering evaluation, developed in accordance with the guidance of GL 86-10. On a case-by-case basis, the inaccessibility of any such penetration seal must be justified, and the fire protection adequacy of the configuration must be demonstrated. The evaluation, as stated in the basis document, must include assessment of proximate combustible loading, mitigating features, and the consequences of potential failure of the affected seal.

The staff reviewed the applicant's response and found that it did not address the fact that GL 86-10 evaluations exist for all inaccessible fire barrier penetration seals; the response only indicated that it is a part of the fire protection program to perform such analyses. The staff requests the applicant to confirm that these analyses do exist and are periodically reviewed and updated to ensure their continued applicability.

Response for 01 3.0.3.2.7-1:

There are no IP3 fire barrier penetration seals excluded from periodic inspection due to inaccessibility. Therefore, there are no corresponding engineering evaluations.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 48 of 52 01 3.3-1: (SER Section 3.3A.2.3.1 - Service Water System - Summary of Aging Management Review - LRA Table 3.3.2-2-1P2)

The staff reviewed LRA Table 3.3.2-2-1P2, which summarizes the results of AMR evaluations for the service water system component groups. The LRA table referenced Note F for titanium heat exchanger shell externally exposed to condensation with no aging effect and no AMP.

The staff noted that in LRA Table 3.3.2-9-1P2, the applicant used Note F for the same material/environment combination, but cited an aging effect of loss of material and stated that it will be managed by the Periodic Surveillance and Preventive Maintenance Program. This appears to be a discrepancy.

Similarly, the staff reviewed LRA Table 3.3.2-14-1P2, which summarizes the results of AMR evaluations for the emergency diesel generator system component groups. The LRA table referenced Note F for titanium heat exchanger tubes exposed to raw water (internal) having aging effects of fouling and loss of material which will be managed using the Service Water Integrity Program. The staff noted that in LRA Table 3.3.2-2-1P2, the applicant used Note F for the same material/environment combination but cites cracking as an additional aging effect.

This appears to be a discrepancy.

Further information is required regarding the apparent discrepancies, before this item may be closed.

Response for 01 3.3-1:

LRA Table 3.3.2-2-1P2 is correct for titanium heat exchanger shell externally exposed to condensation with no aging effect and no AMP. LRA Table 3.3.2-9-1P2 is corrected as shown below to be consistent with Table 3.3.2-2-1P2. (underline - added, strikethrough - deleted)

In the second part of the Open Item the staff noted a difference between Tables 3.3.2-14-1P2 and 3.3.2-2-1P2 in that cracking was not identified as an aging effect for titanium heat exchanger tubes exposed to raw water (internal) in Table 3.3.2-14-1P2. The reason for this difference is that the titanium tubes in Table 3.3.2-14-1P2 for the emergency diesel generator are ASTM SB-338 Grade 2 titanium. As specified in the EPRI Mechanical Tools and the Metals Handbook, Ninth Edition, Volume 13, grades 1, 2, 7, 11, and 12 of titanium and its alloys are virtually immune to SCC except in a few specific environments (such as anhydrous methanol/halide solutions, red fuming nitric acid (HNO3), and liquid cadmium). Since these tubes are exposed to raw water cracking was not identified as an aging effect requiring management in Table 3.3.2-14-1P2. However in Table 3.3.2-2-1P2, the grade of titanium installed in the service water system is unknown so it was conservatively assumed that the material was not grades 1, 2, 7, 11 or 12 and cracking was identified as an aging effect requiring management.

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 50 of 52 01 3.5-3: (SER Section 3.5.2.2.2 - Safety-Related and Other Structures and Component Supports)

Item 3.5.1-40 of LRA Table 3.5.1 addresses building concrete at locations of expansion and grouted anchors for the aging effect of reduction in concrete anchor capacity due to local concrete degradation/service-induced cracking or other concrete aging mechanisms. The GALL Report recommends the Structures Monitoring Program (SMP) for monitoring this concrete component for the stated aging effect. The staff finds that the applicant has appropriately credited the SMP for Groups B2 through B5 component supports and surrounding concrete consistent with the GALL Report. However, for the Group B1 (ASME Class 1, 2, 3 & MC) supports, the applicant's reference to "IP concrete anchors and surrounding concrete" implies that the applicant is crediting the ISI-IWF AMP for both the supports and surrounding concrete.

The staff finds that, while ISI-IWF is appropriate for the Group B1 component supports themselves, ISI-IWF is not specifically applicable for concrete surrounding the anchors for these supports, because the code support boundary definition which extends to the surface of the building but does not include the building structure. Therefore, the applicant should indicate which AMP it will use to manage the effects of aging for the concrete surrounding the B1 supports.

Response for 01 3.5-3:

As indicated in the discussion column for Item 3.5.1-40 of LRA Table 3.5.1, the applicable aging management program for concrete surrounding concrete anchors is the Structures Monitoring Program. The evaluation provided in LRA section 3.5.2.2.2.6 (1) is clarified to read as follows.

Concrete surrounding IPEC concrete anchors is included in the Structures Monitoring Program (Groups B1 through 15).

NL-09-018 Attachment I Docket Nos. 50-247 & 50-286 Page 51 of 52 01 4.3-1: (SER Section 4.3.1 - Class 1 Fatigue)

In its review, the staff noted that the applicant used data from 1973 to 1995 to project the number of plant heatups and cooldowns from 1995 to March 31, 2006 (current cycles), rather than use actual data. As stated above, the applicant will track the number of transients under the Fatigue Monitoring Program. However, without the actual number of heatups and cooldowns from 1995 to March 31, 2006, the applicant may not be able to accurately predict when the number of analyzed cycles might be exceeded. The staff notes that changes in operating practices such as refueling (12-month refueling cycle vs. 24-month refueling cycle) would decrease the number of heatups and cooldowns experienced post 1995, which should yield a more conservative projection. Nonetheless, the applicant should have the actual data for the plant startups and shutdowns during this period of time. Therefore, the staff believes that the use of actual plant operating experience in lieu of a projection for the current number of cycles is appropriate.

Response for 01 4.3-1:

The actual number of IP3 plant heatups and plant cooldowns through March 31, 2006 (including the period from 1995 to March 31, 2006) was determined to be 55. The 60 year projection of this value results in an estimate of 109 plant heatups and 109 plant cooldowns. This information was previously provided in response to audit item 14 in license renewal application Amendment 3 (NL-08-057) dated March 24, 2008.
